Mannian PC methodology divides
each series by its standard deviation in the calibration period.

NCLB has a fairly simple structure: states were required to develop learning
standards along with consistent assessments of student accomplishment of these
standards; schools were required to be on a glide path to get all of their students up to a state - defined proficiency level
by 2013; and the federal government established a
series of corrective actions — including provision of supplemental services, broad student choice, and reconstitution — that were required of individual schools after continual
deviation from this glide path.
Exit when the price is moving rapidly into an overextended technical state, often identified
by a
series of vertical bars on the 60 - minute chart or price piercing the third or fourth
standard deviation of a top or bottom 20 - day Bollinger Band.
Another way to look at the results of the AAII screens is to calculate compound annual returns divided
by standard deviation for each
series of results from 1998 to 2012.
The Sharpe ratio is calculated for a time
series by dividing the mean period return (daily, monthly, yearly), in excess of the risk free rate,
by the
standard deviation of such returns.
The proxy
series and PCs were formed into anomalies relative to the same 1902 — 80 reference period mean, and the proxy
series were also normalized
by their
standard deviations during that period.
The «noise level,» that is, the amplitude of internal variability, approximated here
by the
standard deviation (σ) of the OHC time
series after the linear trend is removed, amounts to 0.77 × 1022 J from 2004 to 2015 (Table 1).
For a Gaussian time
series, the margin of error on a trend of length N t estimated
by linear least - squares regression is a function of the magnitude of the interannual variability (given
by the
standard deviation σ), the lag - one autocorrelation and the trend length (Thompson et al. 2015).
From the tree ring width differences one can see that the variations are influenced
by the younger tree ring ages being bigger and tending to give a larger
standard variation, but not entirely as the smaller older tree rings in some of the trees from the second half of the difference
series had
standard deviations larger than the younger larger rings from the first half of the difference
series..
To avoid these two artificial parameters, as a final step we have standardized the quantities
by subtracting the mean and dividing
by the
standard deviation of each
series shown, for the whole period 1909 - 2003.»
All
series were standardized
by subtracting the mean and dividing
by the
standard deviation of each
series shown for the period 1971 - 2000.»
These range from simple averaging of regional data and scaling of the resulting
series so that its mean and
standard deviation match those of the observed record over some period of overlap (Jones et al., 1998; Crowley and Lowery, 2000), to complex climate field reconstruction, where large - scale modes of spatial climate variability are linked to patterns of variability in the proxy network via a multivariate transfer function that explicitly provides estimates of the spatio - temporal changes in past temperatures, and from which large - scale average temperature changes are derived
by averaging the climate estimates across the required region (Mann et al., 1998; Rutherford et al., 2003, 2005).
All time
series were normalized
by their
standard deviation.
